  1. That looks amazing! Nothing to do with your excellent video (enjoyed the inclusion of the rainbow, BTW), but it was funny to watch the video with the automatically-generated captions as they found a different creative way to botch "ossobuco" every time!

  2. Oxen are commonly castrated adult male cattle; castration inhibits testosterone and aggression, which makes the males docile and safer to work with. Cows (adult females) or bulls (intact males) may also be used in some areas.
    What we call STEER's

  3. The full video of Brian Regan's "stupid in school" bit is so worth it.
    It's from his show "I walked on the moon". It's the one where he's in a blue shirt in front of a wall that has a big backdrop that says "improv"

  4. I think I first tried Osso Bucco by adapting a Sam the Cooking Guy recipe. Very good cooked in an open Dutch oven on my Weber Kettle low and slow. I cooked for a couple hours before adding some braise to it. The result was wonderful. But just cooking it as you did would be great and really make the beef the star.

  5. Back when I was a kid in the 1960’s when my parents where on budget my mom would get lamb shanks and I think ossobuco (and lamb chops and veal) because they were dirt cheap back then. Then sometime in then years later when these “star” and “celebrity” chefs got a hold of what was essentially cheap cuts of meat the prices skyrocketed. I guess the same can be said of brisket as well -right?

  6. Great job on the twist of this classic dish that typically is braised and uses veal.
    I have been smoking beef osso bucco at least 2 times a month for over 10 years. It is always a hit with guests.
    Sadly, your video will now raise the price of this cut.
    Another great cut to smoke is ox tail.
    I make a smoked oxtail Jamaican stew.
    Ox tail is the same as beef tail.
    I'm surprised you don't do much with lamb.
    Smoked Lamb Shoulder or lamb neck makes great pulled lamb. And smoked Lamb shank is wonderful.

  7. The classic Osso Buco recipe calls for reducing the braising liquid and using it as a sauce. In your version, the meat looks very tender, but dry and lacking maximum flavor without the reduced braising liquid.

  8. That Brian Regan skit is also one of my all time favorites!

    Brian, what's the plural for a Moose? …MOOSEN! I SAW A FLOCK OF MOOSEN, There were many of em, many much moosen! Out in the woods, the woodes, IN THE WOODSEN!

  9. Great techique on the mashed potatoes. Only two things I would encourage you to try. 1. Put the potatoes in the water before you apply much heat. Then the potato cooks more evenly, better texture. 2. Instead of melting the butter, add room temp butter to the hot potatoes and mix it in. That keeps the butter in emulsion. Basically mounting the mashed potatoes.

  10. A disturbing trend I keep seeing is all the cheaper cuts we are using for BBQ are going way up in price, more than just inflation. Beef shanks, ox tail, chuck, all getting super expensive. Eventually we will just be smoking water if prices continue to go up.
